Got a bit teary eyed watching you head into St. Malo and then the drive to Mont Saint Michel, I was there a few years ago , my family roots are in Saint Malo + or - 200 years ago, brought back good memories of my trip. Thank you.
Oh wow. I'm so glad one of my small videos brought back some great memories. Thanks for watching ❤ UR
Always a pleasure watching your vlogs.
Really nice trip. You were pretty close to loads of fantastic locations, so there's an option to go again :) Cheers
Great couple of days touring well done.
Nice video. Northern France is so nice. Thanks for sharing
Cracking vid. We going next summer for a tour of the beaches, video was very helpful 👍🏻
Need to do it. Did Ypres and surrounding area earlier this year. Overwhelming. Thanks for sharing it
Wishing having a biker buddy who'd joining me for trip like this to me...
We are heading over to France this year heading up to The Hague. Can’t wait 😎
We went there to the Normandy Beaches Sept and spent 5 days there. We planned to go to Mont Sant Micheal but visiting all the landing beaches and Bayeux, we did not get there. Least it saved us that walk, lol. Great place to visit though, the museums, and cemeteries including the German one, so much to to see. Our trip is on here, very humbling.
Top little weekend that pal ... how nice is rouen though we've been 3 times now 👍
Yes mate. Gorgeous. Could have spent a whole day at mint st Michel. Had a Great night on the beer in Rouen. Can't believe we missed honfleur
@@UneasyRideryeah it's 1 of those places ud never really visit unless u were touring
I did Spain last year went in October, as I approached the ferry a group of 6 riders on new BMW GS pulled along side me, I kid you not they had more tech than John Lewis, and there was I on my 10 year old 1250 bandit with no helmet cam, no sat nav, no comms, just a roll bag, tank bag, and a good old fashion map.
Good for you. Thats all you need.
And i bet you had a great time.

Yes I did, Spain this October.
Nice video 👌
Had also the possibility to drive there a few weekend before. We had done a tour from switzerland to the normandie and back in 4 days. About 2300 kilometer with some friends and my cbr 600rr. Really beautiful roads and views there, I have to say. We saw the memorial in cean as well,the bunker. It was worth of it 👍
And of course, band of brothers is just brilliant.
Just started watching this series, we’re booked to do Normandy end of July if lockdown permits, how strange I just ordered a lomo dry bag and then you just mentioned it 🤘🏻
Hello mate. First of all thanks for watching! The video doesnt do Normandy justice...trust me. However all the places we visited were amazing. Enjoy your time there and enjoy the scenery food and riding. My regrets were honfleur. I didn't get to visit. Rouen....great night out!
Uneasy Rider 🤞🏻 lockdown allows us to go
@@Motourev If you enjoy good views, visit Dinan. its a short ride from St Malo (look it up). Being from St Malo myself, I know that there are so many beautiful areas in Brittany. 🇫🇷
owen will do thanks 👍🏻
i really enjoyed the oldie worldie speed bumps
Lovely tour. As a Yank I appreciate your appreciation for those who fought at Omaha Beach. Hang in there world we will dump Trump soon and be back to normal and again be a people you can count on !
How are you enjoying your back to normal?
Just watching, looks like a great trip. Did you pre plan your routes? What would you recommend using to research Route? Cheers
Hiya Wayne. Thanks for watching. I just knew that France would be easy and a great weekend trip. I also wanted to visit the Normandy beaches. With every trip i do...I give myself a max mileage range of 300 miles a day and then times that by how many days. That gives me a rough idea of route. I then just look at the map and see where I will end up. I then plan roughly where to stay. With France i knew I had to get to Calais by sunday😅
If you're a Band of Brothers fan you need to get to Bastogne. Lovely town with the war museum and Mardasson memorial. Added bonus of some great biking roads just over the border in Luxembourg. did that a couple of years ago on the way to Austria.
Bastogne and Luxembourg is next year matey. Via Black forest and Wildbad!
Cool. I've been through the Black Forest a couple of times and both times meant to go to Wildbad but never got there.
I’m off to Normandy in June this year. Really want to record it etc. What camera / microphone set up are you using for this? Cheers
Use a go pro hero 3 black but the battery life is poor. I'd get the hero 4. Watch my video on how I set it up. Hope you have a great trip.
Great video, really enjoyed it
Like your tours mate .What bikes are you riding?.
I'm looking round for a decent bike to do same kinda stuff but finding it difficult to chose a model without spending a fortune but don't want anything too heavy .
No interested in adventure bikes really there too big ,I'm not a big person.
Cheers .
Hiya Kevin. I love the traditional sports tourers. Z1000sx, gsx650f, vfr800 etc. I only spent 2500 gbp on my ride and it was awesome
Hi there, nice to see another place explored. Could you share your GoPro settings please? Cheers
always film at 1080p at 60fps
@@UneasyRider i meant more protune settings, cheers bud
Stayed hotel in that square you were at in St Malo. Lovely place but crazy busy in summer with tourists...........that was before lockdown of course
Yeah great little place could have sat there all day.
At 2:28 - Why did you say that guy is a loser?
Had this on my short list for my first foreign trip! I'd love to do Norway or Picos as well! Guess it doesn't matter where just got to get out and ride. Great to see you sticking with the GSXF! You must have added some miles to it? Such a brilliant understated all rounder. I was worried you might be changing it for the Z1000SX?
Big Suzi is a great bike. A very basic bike for touring on, but she's done really well. A proper workhorse!
Easy company didn’t land on the beaches on d day, they jumped in the night before
Great vid...but where’s part two?

Complimenti .....www.robytour.it
Did you call an L rider a loser?
Is was the overtake at a stupid time not that he had l plates
I liked your videos but calling a learner a loser doesn't say much about you.
Unsubscribing.
I'd rather see fellow bikers who respect everyone.
Your absolutely spot on and I should of edited that bit out. What you didn't see was the rider acting around before that. At the point in the video he squeezes between me and a parked car which due to the wide angle of the camera isn't fully appreciated. I respect all riders but not ones who are a danger to me on the road.
